Oil to Preserve spars.

"How much is that spar worth?" asked
a reporter of the veteran spar maker.
about $3.50 will pay for it, The stick
was cut in New Hampshire and is one of the
best made in this city for long time"
slow long do the masts of vessel general
ly last?"
20 well, that is a hard question to answer,
you see there is a great difference in the
lasting quality Of spars. A short.time ago
took the masts from vessel which had
been launched but four years, they were all
rotten. On the other hand, l know of a
vessel which has been sailing fifteen years
with the same master and they are apparent
ly as sound to-day as they were when first
put in"
SIS anything done to the masts to preserve
them?"
"Oyes, there are various whims cherished
by old tars in regard to the matter. Some
think that salt water will preserve them and
the spars are accordingly thoroughly soaked
in the sea before they are put into the vessel
Others fancy that kerosene will keep them
from rotting and after the mast is fixed in
the boat the oil is poured in hole at the top
and they believe that the kerosene penetrates
all parts of the mast and then preserves it."
"How much do set of spars for ship
cost?"
"That depends upon the size and quality
of the spars, the prices range from $3.50 to
more than $1,000. A straight mast So feet
long, of good quality and not less than 20
inches in diameter at the top, is worth about
